The long since dead king of Koraidus has risen from his slumber, blinded by rage and vengeance from Ganondorf’s malice, he now slaughters anyone who comes into the family crypt. Only his son Link can put his soul to rest and avenge the Koraidus Royal Family.

Respected by all of the Yiga Clan, Master Kohga seems like a joke. Overweight, clumsy, and even silly at times, but he more than makes up for it with his devious cunning, laying traps and playing others into unwinable situations. Rather than using weapons, he prefers using the secret Yoga arts to levitate spiked balls and vanish into the shadows, but up close, he’s not the best.

A mere fraction of Ganondorf’s true power, a malice fueled phantom that seeks to destroy Link and his potential lineage with a myriad of dark magics.

The surrogate mothers of Ganondorf himself, Koume and Kotake are wicked down to the very core. Wielding the powers of fire and ice, they make up for their lack of physicality with their magical might, and coordinating skills. If ever backed into a corner, they can merge into a powerful beast wielding their elements, and crush any who would oppose the might of the Demon King.

Many don’t know how this particularly frightening variation of Poe came to being, some say it was the servant of Ganondorf itself, some say it was the byproduct of mass death and hatred, and others say it was made out of pure gloom. It’s frightening visage and crooked scythe are used to great effect to rip its victims to pieces and bathe in their blood, and only Link and Rosa can stop it.

An ancestor of today’s Syger, these thought-to-be extinct creatures are fearsome predators. Their thick fur not only provides protection from the cold, but also most weapons, with lighter weapons virtually useless, and vulnerable to the mace-like tail the creature has. While attacking the tail is a viable strategy, using fire will really do some damage.

Built by an ancient civilization, Cragnoktos was build to excavate and extract rare ores to help build powerful devices. Despite potential centuries of inaction, it still functions, only now it’s corrupted by Ganon’s magic. Its excavation claw and drill bit make for formidable weapons, and its armored plating makes it impenetrable to modern weapons, although it is vulnerable to similarly ancient weapons.

Digdogger has a super tough exterior that is coated with venomous barbs that can render a buffalo dead in seconds. Attacking the eye won’t be good as it’s shielded by a lens, however, it is affected by blunt force, such as an iron ball. It is also vulnerable to loud noises, which disorients it and causes it distress.

Causing storms with a mere flap of its wings, the Thunderbird’s shrieks sound like a crackling bold of lightning. It generates lightning to rain down on those below by vibrating the feathers of its wings, charging them up and letting loose. They are also known to be vicious when it comes to their territory, their talons capable of damaging high durability armor. The only way for them to be even remotely vulnerable is if they are struck my lightning themselves, which can be caused by a natural storm, or their own.

Only found in high altitudes of the Sky born Ruins, Malphaqui wildly glides through the air, snapping at any possible morsel it could find. Its erratic flight causes panic and its blinding speed makes it hard to dodge. Only the most skilled archers can land a hit on it, which is easier said than done.

An amphibious dragon that prefers damp areas, they are highly territorial and will kill anyone that stumbles into their territory. They have supreme swimming skills and their magic horn can leave their target all but vaporized. Link and Undine were able to take it down thanks to the latter diving in after it and fighting it herself, allowing for Link to corner it on land.
